PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE
Good governance - learn from the actions of others
O
ver the past year a number of security companies have come under the spotlight following investigations by the Independent Commission Against Corruption and the watchful eye of state and federal regulators. Understandably, these investigations have attracted significant media attention and scrutiny. These investigations have shown that a failure to have in place sound governance principles and practices is not good for employees, customers, business or the reputation of the Industry as a whole. Given that some of those involved in these investigations have been ASIAL members, what is ASIAL doing about it? The answer is, a great deal. The Association enforces its Professional Code of Conduct through a measured and a balanced approach, one that follows the principle of natural justice. Where we are notified of alleged breaches we investigate and then take appropriate action.The ASIAL Disciplinary Committee is responsible for investigating alleged non-compliance and provides the Board with recommended actions.The Disciplinary Committee’s investigation involves a mixture of site visits, interviews with key personnel, access to relevant internal documents and public reports. Among the options available to us include expulsion and remedial action or financial sanctions of up to $500,000. Over the past two years we have expelled close to 400 members for a range of reasons. Where appropriate the relevant regulatory authority is advised. At its most recent meeting in Hobart, the Board moved to expel one member and imposed a significant financial sanction on another for bringing the industry into disrepute. In addition to this, the ASIAL Secretariat receives daily updates on members placed under administration or liquidation. Based on this information, the
8 //SECURITY INSIDER APR 2014
Association takes the appropriate course of action against the member involved. It is important we all learn lessons from the experiences of others. Good corporate governance is the responsibility of all company directors. It is also critical to the success and sustainability of any company. Have you invested in educating your staff on what is and what is not acceptable behaviour? Are you fully aware of your regulatory compliance obligations? Do you understand your fiduciary responsibilities as a director? Do you understand your obligations under the ASIAL Professional Code of Conduct? If you answered “no” to any of these questions, you need to seek assistance. A good first step would be to contact the ASIAL Secretariat who can provide you with assistance or point you in the right direction. Finally, on a different note the ASIAL Board of Directors recently met in Hobart and enjoyed the opportunity of meeting with members. It was very pleasing to see the strong attendance at the breakfast briefing and the obvious passion and commitment of Tasmanian members. It was also encouraging to hear the Tasmanian Police Assistant Commissioner’s positive words about the relationship between police and security. The Board looks forward to meeting with more members at Security 2014 in Melbourne and later in the year in Brisbane.

PROMOTING THE USE OF ASIAL MEMBERS During the course of the recent 2014 Australian Open event held in Melbourne, tennis fans in Sydney were able to enjoy the crowd atmosphere by watching the tournament on a huge outdoor screen in one of Australia’s highest foot traffic areas, Sydney’s Customs House Square. As part of its ongoing consumer awareness campaign, the Association promoted the use of ASIAL member companies through 308 advertising spots on the huge fan zone outdoor screen. One of the adverts to air was the Community Service Announcement with Crime Stoppers that advocates the use of appropriately licensed security providers and members of

QLD - SECURITY OFFICERS WHO ALSO MONITOR A PROPERTY VIA ELECTRONIC DEVICES Security officers (unarmed) who also provide the security function of monitoring property using an electronic device, are required to hold a security officer licence (monitoring) in addition to the unarmed security officer licence category. An example of this occurs where a security officer monitors property in an on-site control room often using CCTV, radios or other electronic devices.
PRIVACY LEGISLATION CHANGES From 12 March 2014 the Australian Privacy Principles (APP’s) replaced the national Privacy Principles and Information Privacy Principles. The changes include a new set of Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) that will regulate the handling of personal information by Australian Government agencies, businesses with a turnover of more than $3 million or those trading in personal information and all private health service providers. There are also changes to the credit reporting provisions of the Privacy Act and new regulatory powers for the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC), including the power to conduct a privacy performance assessment, accept an enforceable undertaking
10 //SECURITY INSIDER APR 2014
and, in the case of serious or repeated breaches, seek civil penalties. ‘These are the most significant changes to privacy laws in over 25 years and affect a large section of the community.The world has changed remarkably since the late 1980s when the Privacy Act was first introduced, and so the changes were required to bring our laws up to date with contemporary information handling practices, including global data flows,’ said Australian Privacy Commissioner Timothy Pilgrim. The OAIC will continue to work with Australian Government agencies and businesses to assist them with the reforms. Information and guidance about the reforms can be found at www.oaic.gov.au The new laws require businesses and Australian Government agencies to be more transparent about how they handle personal information. Entities need to have a clearly expressed and up to date privacy policy about the way they handle personal information.
The terms of reference include an assessment and review of: • Current nationally recognised and accredited aviation and maritime security related training programs; • Industry and other in-house security training programs; • Government and approved security
training courses; • The standard of security training and assessment in place in each industry sector; • The training needs assessed for each industry sector including the roles, jobs, tasks that need to be learned, competencies and skills that are required, how the training is delivered and assessed, standard and competency of the instructors, and the monitoring and review of training outcomes. Submissions close on 30 June 2014.
CONSULTATION REQUIRED FOR CHANGES TO REGULAR ROSTERS AND ORDINARY WORKING HOURS
AVIATION AND MARITIME SECURITY The Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Infrastructure,The Hon Warren Truss has invited contributions to the Inquiry into Aviation and Maritime Transport Security Education and Training in Australia.
From 1 January 2014, changing regular rosters requires consultation with affected employees due to the introduction of amendments to the Fair Work Act 2009.

VIC- DOES A BUREAU ENGAGING A MONITORING CENTRE REQUIRE A SECURITY BUSINESS LICENCE? The simple answer is 'Yes'. The Victoria Police Licensing & Regulation Division (LRD) continues to review the activities undertaken by organisations holding a security business registration and who engage the services of an organisation to monitor the alarm services for their clients. This service is often referred to as a bureau service and if the alarm installation company does not also hold a security business licence they are in breach of the Private Security Act. By engaging a monitoring centre on behalf of a client, invoicing the client for the alarm monitoring service and/or invoicing the client for any additional services such as a guard or an alarm response provided through the monitoring centre, the bureau is undertaking a security activity and needs to have a security business licence.
© ISO100 photography
This puts the alarm installation company in the position of providing a security activity of security guarding. The activity of guarding incorporates the function of a monitoring centre. It is an offence to carry on a business of providing certain private security services without a private security business licence. Section 5 of the Private Security Act provides a penalty of up to 120 penalty units
($17,323) for an individual and 240 penalty units ($34,646) for a company. Where the LRD finds organisations in breach of the above situation, LRD are working with the organisation in a cooperative manner for an application to be lodged for a security business licence. Failure to comply with the legislative requirements and LRD directions will cause penalties to be issued or subsequent court action.
AUSTRALIAN SKILLS QUALITY AUTHORITY (ASQA) ASQA was established on 1 July 2011 by the National Vocational Education and Training Regulator Act 2011 (NVR Act) to regulate training courses and providers to ensure nationally approved quality standards are met. ASQA regulates approximately 4000 of the 4800+ training providers across Australia. Under S35 (2) of the NVR Act the National VET Regulator may… review or examine any aspect of … an RTO’s operations to determine any systemic issues relating to the quality of VET. Earlier this year, ASQA announced it would conduct a strategic industry review into security industry training. ASQA Chief Commissioner Chris
14 //SECURITY INSIDER APR 2014
Robinson said the reviews would examine key sectors that were vital to the Australian economy and the broader community.The review of training in the security industry has been prompted by ongoing community concerns about the quality and adequacy of training being offered to security guards. He said “Security guards play an important role in keeping our community safe. However, they need to have the right skills and experience to ensure their safety and the safety of those they are protecting”. The areas of concern include: • Quality of training • Assessment of skills
• • • • •
Online assessment Communication skills Safe restraint techniques Mutual recognition Cross border training and partnering agreements ASIAL has welcomed the inquiry and will participate in the review process.

CHANGES TO SPECIALIST CABLING COMPETENCIES The Australian Communications & Media Authority’s regulatory requirements for cabling providers who install specialised cabling within customer premises have been amended. As a result, registered cablers who intend carrying out specialised cabling (such as Structured, Co-axial and Optical Fibre) after 1 July 2014 need to have the training competencies relevant to this specialised cabling work. The new competencies only apply to cabling providers who undertake the relevant specialised cabling work within customer premises.The final date on which cablers may undertake the full range of cabling operations with a basic Open cabling registration is 30 June 2014.
OPEN CABLERS All Open registered cablers doing these types of specialised/advanced cabling within customer premises must by 1 July 2014 have acquired the appropriate

cablers intending to work on Broadband installations must have acquired the relevant Restricted Broadband specialist competency.

ASIAL urges cablers to act now to avoid missing out, and risk disruption to your legal scope of work. specialist competencies (also known as Endorsements). Cablers who have already attained Endorsements for Structured (previously Cat 5), Coaxial and Optical Fibre Cabling will not need to do further training in these specialisations, as these endorsements are equivalent to the current competencies.

THE
NBN
WHERE TO NOW? By John Fleming (GM, ASIAL)
Since the election of the Abbott government in September 2013, debate has raged over the National Broadband Network (NBN) as to what technologies the NBN Co will utilise to provide the necessary infrastructure to meet Australia’s future needs in an increasingly global economy.
26 //SECURITY INSIDER APR 2014
INSIDER_Mar/Apr 2014 Iss1_48pp

Communications Minister Malcolm Turnbull recently stated that Australians will know what type of technology will be used to connect their homes to the NBN no later than December, following the release of the revised NBN Co corporate plan in July. Fibre To The Premises (FTTP) was always going to be the best solution, but blowouts in costs and the time frame for delivery has seen the new Government looking for alternative solutions.The NBN Co plans to upgrade the current telecommunications network in the most cost-efficient way using best -fit technologies and existing infrastructure. It is understood that it will take another 12 months to review alternative strategies around a hybrid solution. One technology touted is utilisation of the Hybrid Fibre Coaxial (HFC) network.This would bring Telstra back to the table for negotiations around access and the question at what price they would be willing to accept.The new technologies will vary from place to place, but will include Fibre to the Node (FTTN) Fibre to the Premises (FTTP), Fibre to the Basement (FTTB), fixed wireless and Satellite. While all this is being played out at a high level, the NBN as we know it (FTTP) continues to roll out across Australia.The first major milestone in the journey is the permanent disconnection of copper networks in 15 areas on the 23rd May 2014. In the areas where FTTP is being rolled out the NBN will replace most existing landline phones, ADSL internet and Telstra internet services. Also the NBN will replace Optus cable internet and cable phone services.Typical legacy services that currently run over a phone line include; • Personal alarms • Security Alarms • Fire Alarms • EFTPOS Terminals • Lift/Elevator phones The disconnection of copper services will continue throughout 2014. When NBN declares an area ready for service then an 18-month copper disconnection notice is sent to end users premises in that area.Telstra is then obligated to cease sale of any copper connections to that area.This will drive customer connections to the NBN. Important points to remember include; • The NBN Co does not do any internal wiring within the customer’s premises
beyond the network termination device (NTD). • Customers order a service from the Retail Service Provider (RSP). • The security industry can test their products in a test facility know as Plug Bench in Melbourne. • Review your NBN migration options for your customers. Do you know which devices/products are expected to work? • Be prepared to answer questions from your customers. • Ensure that your staff are fully briefed on what to say to customers. Typical questions from customers will include: • Will my landline be disconnected? • Will my alarm system work? • Do I really need to move to the NBN? • Where should I have the NDT installed? • Will there be any costs involved? ASIAL recommends that you take the opportunity of contacting the NBN Co for a list of addresses of premises that will be disconnected (DAD). When you do, you will be asked to sign a Non Disclosure Agreement (NDA) before receiving the information.You will then be able to wash this list of disconnections against your database and identify customers that will be affected.You can then communicate with these customers and advise them what they need to cover with the RSP when they contact them, including: • Tell the RSP you have an Alarm System • Ask if the RSP will be providing a UNI-V voice port • Order a back up battery • Confirm where the NTD is to be

installed It is important to note that: • not all RSP’s will offer a UNI-V voice port; • not all RSP’s will offer an on-site install (from the information we have received, Telstra offer a professional install service); • some RSP’s will just send out the router to be plugged in by the customer to the NTD. The above will potentially leave customers without a connection to existing wiring and may result in customers incurring costs for remedial wiring. The NBN roll out remains a work in progress. Whilst there is uncertainty as to what technologies the NBN will use, it is important to understand that the roll out will still continue. As they saying goes, if you fail to plan, you plan to fail. It is important to get on the front foot with your customers by contacting them now and advising them of what is happening and how you can assist them. As we’ve said before, if you don’t one of your competitors will.

SUPERANNUATION
Help your employees catch their super
It’s important that your employees are aware that under certain circumstances, by law, their super can be transferred from their super account to the Australian Taxation Office (ATO). And the challenge is they might not even know it’s happened. But, the good news is that there are ways your employees can avoid this. And, as an employer, you can also help.
Here’s what you can do 1. Make sure you keep AustralianSuper up-to-date about any changes to your employees’ details. When contacting your employees who are members, our system uses the information you provide us. So, if you have old contact information for them, there’s a risk they may not receive their super information and their
correspondence could be returned to us as unclaimed mail.This could lead to their super being transferred to the ATO. 2. When you do receive changes to an employee’s details, tell us. To make it simple, we suggest you update us via the same way you pay your employees’ contributions. For example, if you normally do this online, update employee details online too. 3. Make sure your employees are aware about staying active members of their super fund. We’ve created a fact sheet that you can download and put up in your office
or on your intranet. Our Catch your super before it goes to the ATO fact sheet covers things like how your employees can search for lost or unclaimed super, why super goes to the ATO and ways they can help stop it from going.To download the fact sheet, just visit www.australiansuper.com/catchmysuper 4. Let us know when an employee leaves, including their employment end date. That way, we can ensure that all SG payments are made up to that date. And we also write to the former employee about their super account and options.
And why should your employees keep their super with AustralianSuper? Because we’re one of the biggest and have been one of the best performing super funds in the country over a decade.

WORKPLACE RELATIONS
A busy year ahead in Workplace Relations By Chris Delaney
Over the past 10 years the industrial relations landscape has changed more than in the previous 20 years … and there is more to come. Many employers would like greater stability, however in the security industry, just as many are seeking greater flexibility in how they and their employees can work together in a highly competitive market.The Modern Award system has not, in our opinion, achieved its goal of being simpler and fairer and at no greater cost to employers. As a registered organization of employers ASIAL has the right to represent members and the industry in industrial tribunals to bring about positive change, create greater flexibility and promote the industry to legislators and regulators. Much of what ASIAL does for its members is not obvious. However, through numerous submissions and working with regulators over long periods of time we are securing results. One of the Abbott government’s preelection promises was to conduct a review of Australia’s workplace laws. Whilst the terms of reference have yet to be released, it is envisaged that the review will place penalty rates, pay and conditions under the microscope. The government has requested the Productivity Commission to examine the current operation of Fair Work Laws to “identify future options to improve the laws bearing in mind the need to ensure that workers are protected and the need for businesses to be able to grow, prosper and employ.” The next 12 – 18 months will be an
34 //SECURITY INSIDER APR 2014
important period for workplace relations. The following is a summary of some of the important workplace relations activities that ASIAL will represent the interests of members through its active participation.
Small business roundtable In early March, ASIAL participated in a small business roundtable co-hosted by Fair Work Ombudsman Natalie James, Fair Work Commission General Manager Bernadette O’Neill and the Director of Fair Work Building and Construction, Nigel Hadgkiss.The Commonwealth Small Business Minister, the Hon. Bruce Billson, also attended part of the proceedings.The aim of roundtable was to give small business an opportunity to discuss the challenges and difficulties they face. For its part ASIAL identified the need to review the Fair Work Act 2009 and or Modern Awards to overcome the lack of flexibility available to small business and their employees.The security industry provides a service to customers 24 hours 7 day a week and penalty rates drive up the cost of labour to unprofitable levels and stifle employment opportunities. Penalty rates are in our view archaic in today’s society and flat rates of pay provide a simpler and fairer way of remunerating employees and doing business. Individual Flexibility Agreements should have wider application than
currently available and take into consideration non-monetary benefits to employees. Modern Awards should be varied to provide opportunities allowing small businesses to have specific terms applying to their particular circumstances and the needs of their employees. Furthermore, the security industry is required to react quickly to client demand, which can change at a moments notice.The recent variation to Modern Awards to require consultation on change of rosters (see below) provides an unnecessary burden and obstacle to the operational demands of a security business and must be changed or repealed.
Award Modernisation 4 yearly Review The first 4 yearly review of modern awards (the Review) to be undertaken by the Fair Work Commission (the Commission) has just commenced. ASIAL will be making submissions to improve Security Industry Awards in the following areas: - Cashing out of Annual Leave: - Annual Leave loading on termination of employment - Annual Close down provisions - Changes to requirements to consult on roster changes. - Amendments to the model flexibility clause to increase flexibility for employers and employees

extend to other levels of government. ASIAL is committed to working with all Government agencies to develop fair and transparent guidelines that will produce certainty and confidence throughout the supply chain, resulting in a more professional private security industry.

Local Government Procurement Initiative ASIAL and the Fair Work Ombudsman (FWO) have been working together for the past year to develop an education campaign targeting Local Government which aims to shift the focus from price to performance. In 2014 FWO plans to roll out the first phase of the initiative, an education campaign to be taken directly to local councils, their procurement managers and councilors. The message is simple: individuals involved in the procurement of services at prices that can only be supported by the payment of below-award wages could be found to be personally liable for contraventions of the Act and the modern award. ASIAL and FWO are in the process of finalising Model Tender Clauses and a Model Workplace Management Plan as well as information on wages and oncosts so that procurement managers can make more informed decisions when awarding tenders. We are also developing communication strategies to ensure that the key messages reach their target audience. In time, we expect that our work with FWO on the Local Government Procurement Initiative will eventually
Consultation required for changes to regular rosters and ordinary hours of work From 1 January 2014, changing regular rosters requires consultation with affected employees due to the introduction of amendments to the Fair Work Act 2009 (the Act). The new provision, section 145A of the Act, applies to all Modern Awards in operation on or immediately before 1 January 2014.The section now requires employers to consult with all permanent employees and any casual employees who have a reasonable expectation of a regular and systematic pattern of working hours about any change to their regular roster or ordinary hours of work. The section gives employees the following rights in relation to changes to their regular working hours: • consultation about a change to their regular roster or ordinary hours of work; and • representation, if desired for the purposes of that consultation. An employer must: • provide information to the employees about the change; and • invite the employees to give their views about the impact of the change (including any impact in relation to their family or caring responsibilities); and • consider any views about the impact of the change that are given by the employees. The requirement in section 145A 'to consult with employees' was noted in a
decision of the Fair Work Commission to mean that there is a requirement to provide information about the change and a genuine opportunity for the affected party to put their views about the proposed change and have them considered by the employer. While you should consider the views of your employee you do not have to agree with or act on them.
ASIAL Special Interest Group (SIG) ASIAL’s SIG forums provide interested members with an opportunity to meet with others in the security industry to discuss and recommend how we can improve as an industry. ASIAL SIG’s cover Electronics, Manpower, Industrial Relations and Human Resources and Cash in Transit, giving members an opportunity to become actively involved in improving the industry. As well as being involved in industry wide matters, we continue to provide corporate members with free over the phone/email advice on any question relating to the workplace along with bulletins and templates, all designed to keep members educated, informed and aware. While it is not always easy to see the initiatives we are working on behalf of members and to understand that some initiatives take longer than others to come to fruition, you can rest assured that we continue to work behind the scenes to effect positive change. That said, it is important that you have your say by participating in our online surveys, blogs and SIG’s. Make sure you keep abreast of changes by reading the information distributed by ASIAL, whether it is First Alert, Security Insider, ASIAL bulletins, Blogs or our web site. The fact of the matter is that the industrial relations landscape is changing and as an employer, you need to understand how the changes will affect you.
